Who Am I?

When I grew up, there was an understanding that all adults had. You didn’t talk to kids about some things, but the culture has changed.

Today in some schools, kids are encouraged to talk to their teachers about gender identity, and in turn keep it a secret from their parents. Public schools today think they are safer for kids than their own homes.

The thinking goes something like this. Educators will separate biological sex from gender; your gender is whatever you think it is. If you are a girl, but you think in a masculine way, then your gender is male.

The Church cannot remain silent on this issue. Not only do the kids we teach need our guidance, but parents are also pleading for assistance. Most parents know there is a problem, but do not know what to say to their kids.

How do you teach kids about a subject as sensitive as gender identity?

This is what I did, I taught the kids in my class about their identity in Christ.

1. What does it mean to be a Christian?
2. Help kids navigate what is being taught in school, like the confusing use of gender pronouns.
3. Guidance on how to respond with kindness, if they have a classmate with two dads or two moms.

Is it possible to love God and love people who don’t love God?

Is it possible to obey the Bible and be kind to people who don’t believe it?

I believe it is. Teaching our kids how to walk in love is just as important as teaching them the truth about gender identity.
